DESCRIPTION CDN - 12 FEATURES

1 . OPEN/CLOSE (Disc Tray Open/Close) - Press to load or eject the disc. Each press will open or close the disc tray on the transport. NOTE: Tray will not open unless the disc has been paused.

2 . LCD DISPLAY - Indicates all the functions, as they are occurring, with the CD. These functions are explained in the next section.

3 . TRACK (Track Buttons) - These buttons are used to select the track to be played.

4 . Track 10 Button - This button is for quickly advancing to higher tracks on a CD.

5 . PITCH (Pitch Button) - This button activates the Pitch Slider (7).

6 . PITCH BEND (Pitch Bend Button) - When each of the two CD players is playing a CD, the pitch bend function allows the positioning of the bass beats to be matched after the pitch of each disc is matched. Either player can “catch up” or “fall back” to match the other player. The pitch will automatically rise while the + button is pressed (allowing “catch up”) and return to the original pitch when the button is released. The pitch will automatically drop while the - button is pressed (allowing “fall back”) and return to the original pitch when the button is released. By changing the pitch of one disc with respect to the other in this way the beats can be matched.

7 . PITCH SLIDER - The pitch can be changed up to +/-12% by pressing the PITCH button so the PITCH LED is lit, then moving the sliding fader. The pitch will not be changed if the PITCH LED is off.

8. POWER BUTTON - Used to turn on the unit.

9 . DISC TRAY - Will accept either 8cm or 12cm discs.

10 . SEARCH WHEEL (OUTER RING) - This wheel has 3 forward and 3 reverse speed positions for searching through songs. The more you turn the wheel in either direction the faster you search through the music.

11 . JOG WHEEL (INNER RING) - This jog wheel serves 2 functions depending on the mode you are working in.

a . The jog wheel will act as a slow frame search control when the CD is not playing but either paused or set to a cue point. To set a new frame cue point, spin the wheel then press play when you have determined the proper position. Press CUE to return to the “CUE POINT”.

b . The jog wheel will temporarily bend the pitch of the music if the song is already playing by rotating the wheel clockwise to speed up or counterclockwise to slow down.

12 . LOOP BUTTON - Used for repeating sections in the music. This is not a seamless function.

1 3 . C U E - Pressing the CUE button during play provides a return to the position at which play was started. If PAUSE is used before CUE, that will become the cue point. Alternately pressing the PLAY button and the CUE button allows the CD to be played from the same position any number of times. The CUE LED will light up from the time the CUE button is pressed until the CD has reset to the position at which play was started. Steady lighting of this LED indicates the ready condition.

14 . START/PAUSE (Play/Pause Button) - Each press of the Play/Pause Button causes the operation to change from play to pause or from pause to play.
